Thanked: 267I will preface this with saying that I know that a lot of us have different objectives when honing. I just have never understood how a "finisher" needs a couple of laps on the felt be it Diamond,CNB, or whatever. I have not run across a Coticule that I would consider giving a finished edge but I have not invested in world class Coticules and instead went to J-Nats. Coticules have a buttery feel and feedback that is certainly not bettered by many, if any, stones. I know that I am in the minority but, for me, to consider a razor to be properly honed I take it off the stone,strop it, and shave with it. I use CNB on felt for a touch-up after about 5 shaves. I just have never shaved with a Coticule honed razor that didn't need more attention.
Am I just a deluded babe in the woods?
Take Care,
